Many of the SkillPort courses end in minutes (e.g 1hr, 30 minutes). For promotion points, do minutes get added together for SP hours too?

Those minutes get accumulated into hours for points IOT be integrated into the system. 5 hours = 1 promotion point, if this is still correct. I would honestly go to JKO and complete courses for promotion points via correspondence hours. They add up much faster then the minute courses on skillport and you can choose MOS based course as well as skill building courses. Just something to look into, but skillport has it's advantages as well

I think correspondence courses for points now have a timed approximation if you click fast, you have the answers. If slow, I guess you're not grasping the content of the instruction. Before I left, the bulk is more on deployment time. For some reason my acting 1SG said I was promotable so before I left, I used the promotable clause where if you retire and promotable you automatically gain a rank. So I'm basically an E-6 without time in rank and without service in rank for that matter.
